An english term springs to mind "Bollox" I dont have any Truetype. And no ImageMagic6.
I'm going to have to look into this ImageMagic6 and install it. As its my own box only i can break it. Is it difficult to install the truetype support and the gif extensions for GD?
As ive just learned TrueType isnt a standard feature of GD Will keep yu updated

GD and its options are installed during the compilation of PHP on your server. If you install through an automated means (such as yum) there may be additional packages from the repository you got your install files from.
As for ImageMagick, you can either choose to compile your own (as I do) or you can download precompiled binaries and just link to them on the server. The later is easiest.

I like easy, and that ImageMagick has some need features too and plenty of help about it from its links page.
Not going to bother with GD Unless i break imagemagic lol

The new version of ImageMagick will be installed within the next 24 hours. Please wait.
Thank you.

Well they did have it installed but someone had not set my shell account properly to access it. Now my shell account is setup and hopefully I'm set when I get ready to complete the setup for CAPTCHA
